I feel like I'm a filmmaker I don't feel I need to yell 'action' and 'cut.'
John Cusack
I wanted to just be a filmmaker, and I thought I wanted to do all the aspects, and it seemed like as a producer was the best way to do it, because I could have... You never have control on a movie, but you have as much control as you can. You can push it through, and you can hire the right people.
